Review
Washington
DC Stoner Metallers – Borracho – have released a string of
acclaimed releases since their formation in 2007. 2016's Atacama made
my best albums of 2016 list. Now the band are back and they've
released a greatest hits of sorts. Well not a greatest hits package
as such. Just all the previously released vinyl only tracks.
Borracho
explain more: Since we first started jamming in late 2007 we’ve
made a habit of sprinkling some goodies before, between, and beside
our LPs. For the first time, a collection of these previously
vinyl-only tracks is now available on the comprehensive Riffography
CD. This incredible package includes singles, b-sides, and splits -
from our first 2008 single “Rectify” to the just announced
“Border Crossing” 7”
What
you have is some outstanding slices of Desert/Stoner Metal from one
of the best Stoner Metal bands around. There are songs here that I
hadn't even heard of before. Such as Rectify. Yeah I know it's been
out for ages. I just focused on Borracho's full length albums and
EP's. Shame on me for that mistake. However I'm grateful that
Borracho have released this excellent album. OK, it's not a proper
album as such but you can see the progression of Borracho's sound to
what it is today.
This
is a must have album for any self respecting Borracho fan. If you're
new to the world of Borracho then Riffography is the best place to
start.
Excellent and Highly Recommended.
